The Toxic Microbiome - Sarah Schwitalla - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Gut microbiomes are dynamic communities varying from population to population and throughout life. In Western societies, a toxic metabolic shift of gut microbiomes is a driver and underestimated risk factor for the development of many noncommunicable chronic pathologies. This book identifies the root cause of these deleterious microbial changes. During the last several decades, increased consumption of animal products, coinciding and correlating with global climate change, has been a contributing cause of undesirable gut microbiome changes. Key Features - - Establishes a connection between poor gut microbiome health and chronic disease and cancer development - - - Demonstrates how animal products and low-fiber diet patterns induce a detrimental metabolic transition of the gut microbiome from a human health-maintaining towards a disease-promoting state - - - Discusses the opportunity of a toxic microbial metabolic signature as a powerful clinical and diagnostic tool to effectively predict chronic disease and cancer development - - - Provides the latest evidence on different strategies to rebuild a healthy microbiome metabolism and effectively prevent noncommunicable diseases and colorectal cancer - - - Documents the gut microbiome benefits of a plant-based diet

The Human Microbiome - - Bog - Oxford University Press Inc - Plusbog.dk

The human microbiome is the bacteria, viruses, and fungi that cover our skin, line our intestines, and flourish in our body cavities. Work on the human microbiome is new, but it is quickly becoming a leading area of biomedical research. What scientists are learning about humans and our microbiomes could change medical practice by introducing new treatment modalities. This new knowledge redefines us as superorganisms comprised of the human body and the collection of microbes that inhabit it and reveals how much we are a part of our environment. The understanding that microbes are not only beneficial but sometimes necessary for survival recasts our interaction with microbes from adversarial to neighborly. This volume explores some of the science that makes human microbiome research possible. It then considers ethical, legal, and social concerns raised by microbiome research. Chapters explore issues related to personal identity, property rights, and privacy. The authors reflect on how human microbiome research challenges reigning views on public health and research ethics. They also address the need for thoughtful policies and procedures to guide the use of the biobanked human samples required for advancing this new domain of research. In the course of these explorations, they introduce examples from the history of biomedical science and recent legal cases that shed light on the issues and inform the policy recommendations they offer at the end of each topic''s discussion. This volume is the product of an NIH Human Microbiome Project grant. It represents three years of conversations focused on consensus formation by the twenty-seven members of the interdisciplinary Microbiome Working Group."The microbiome is a relatively new area of medical attention. Ethical issues related to the microbiome have barely been identified, much less carefully analyzed. This volume is an excellent start toward that ethical analysis. Many of the arguments are persuasive and provocative. In particular, some contributors challenge the ethical need for anonymizing microbiome specimens as well as the need for individual informed consent for specific uses of these specimens. I highly recommend this volume for all those interested in the microbiome and in new frontiers in medical ethics." -Leonard M. Fleck, Michigan State University

Gut Microbiota - Hardeep Singh Tuli - Bog - Jenny Stanford Publishing - Plusbog.dk

Gut Microbiota - Hardeep Singh Tuli - Bog - Jenny Stanford Publishing - Plusbog.dk

Gut microbiota plays a crucial role in preventing cancer by influencing the immune system, regulating inflammation, and producing beneficial metabolites. The microbiota can stimulate the immune system to recognize and destroy cancer cells, and some bacterial strains can directly inhibit the growth of cancer cells. Additionally, gut bacteria can produce short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), which have anti-inflammatory properties and can prevent DNA damage that otherwise can lead to cancer development. Moreover, certain microbial metabolites, such as indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) and butyrate, can induce apoptosis (programmed cell death) in cancer cells, further inhibiting tumor growth. Overall, gut microbiota can help to maintain good health by promoting a healthy immune system, reducing inflammation, and producing beneficial metabolites. This book is a comprehensive guide to understanding the role of gut microbiota in human health. It presents the latest research on gut microbiota, from the characterization of different microbial species to their functions in food conversion and cancer prevention. It sheds light on the diverse composition of gut microbiota, identified through DNA sequencing technology, and how it is influenced by various factors such as diet, genetics, and lifestyle. It highlights promising research on how gut microbiota can be manipulated to prevent health disorders. It is a must-read for anyone interested in understanding the complex and dynamic relationship between gut microbiota and human health.

The Microbiome in Respiratory Disease - - Bog - Springer Nature Switzerland AG - Plusbog.dk

The Microbiome in Respiratory Disease - - Bog - Springer Nature Switzerland AG - Plusbog.dk

This book comprehensively covers the microbiome in respiratory disease, from the initial research study to the disease-specific implications and related applications. Research on the respiratory microbiome is increasing in volume and scope. This reflects rapidly growing interest in the study of respiratory disease to understand how microbiota shape mechanisms of disease pathogenesis. The respiratory tract spans the nasal passages, sinus cavities, oropharynx, and the tracheobronchial tree of the lungs. In these compartments of the upper and lower respiratory tract, the microbiota have now been studied in the context of several chronic respiratory conditions. These include chronic sinusitis, allergic rhinitis, asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), bronchiectasis and pulmonary fibrosis, to name a few. The potential impact of ecological interactions (i.e., between microbes and between microbiota and host) within and across respiratory compartments is increasingly recognized. The book is organized into two main sections. Part I, Principles and Tools, covers conceptual modeling of the respiratory microbiome, experimental methodology with a focus on a priori considerations in study design and sampling, laboratory and computational methods for analysis of respiratory microbiome data, and minimizing interpretive pitfalls. Part II, Applications, discusses the evidence from specific studies that have shed novel insights into the influence of respiratory microbiota on mechanisms or outcomes in specific diseases. Based on current best evidence, disease-specific chapters include chronic rhinosinusitis, asthma (pediatric and adult studies), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), cystic fibrosis (CF), bronchiectasis not due to CF, idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, and lung transplant. This is an ideal reference for forward-thinking practitioners with interest in novel developments in precision medicine applications in lung disease, as well as translational scientists in the field of microbiology, immunology and lung biology.

The Gut in Parkinson's Disease - George Triadafilopoulos - Bog - Springer International Publishing AG - Plusbog.dk

The Gut in Parkinson's Disease - George Triadafilopoulos - Bog - Springer International Publishing AG - Plusbog.dk

At present, there is minimal and misleading knowledge of gastrointestinal dysfunction in Parkinson's disease among primary neurologists and gastroenterologists. This book reviews our current understanding of the GI involvement in PD, as many experiments suggest that the gut might be the site where the disease starts. Also discussed is how the gut dysfunction causes symptoms from the top (mouth) to the bottom (anal canal), and because of their frequency and severity, they contribute to disease progression and disability. In addition, the book covers the negative effects of small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) and of a frequently silent stomach infection by Helicobacter pylori infection on the absorption of antiparkinsonian drugs, in turn causing motor fluctuations and inadequate treatment response. The Gut in Parkinson's Disease serves as a bridge between patients, their movement disorders specialists, and other health care providers who currently provide compartmentalized and at times conflicting care for such needy patients. The book distills the clinical and research experience of the author, who -as a Clinical Professor of Medicine (Gastroenterology) at Stanford University School of Medicine over the past 20 years- managed hundreds of patients with Parkinson’s Disease suffering from gut manifestations.
